The 2023 studies examined ecological and socioeconomic aspects, offering fresh insights into their design evolution and historical significance. Luxembourg Gardens, dating back to the 17th century, blend royal aspirations and botanical art, becoming a cultural icon. In contrast, Tête d'Or Park, established in the 19th century under Mayor Claude Marius Vaiss, features a renowned rose garden, botanical sanctuary, and zoo, reflecting Lyon’s heritage and commitment to species conservation. This comparative study highlights both parks' architectural and botanical elegance, as well as their vital roles as urban green spaces. Masterful landscaping and preservation efforts illustrate how these parks serve as biodiversity sanctuaries, cultural landmarks, and community health hubs, emphasizing the importance of maintaining urban green infrastructure.

areas have been regularly at war. The wars between Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan
in 1990-1994 and 2020 had a negative impact not only on Stepanakert but also on
the neighboring towns and villages. For 30 years, Azerbaijan presented various facts
that the city was Azerbaijani, and 99% of the Armenians living in Nagorno Karabakh
proved that the area was Armenian and put forward their version of solving the problem.
The conflict has not been resolved yet. The historical and cultural heritage of
the city has been studied many times, it has been proved to be Armenian. To this day,
however, the media goes for the nationality of the war zone. With this material, facts
and historical-documentary data, we prove that it is Armenian and present the rich
Armenian historical and cultural heritage of the city.

nowadays. There are many interesting and thoroughly researched reports of architectural and historical value done
by not only Armenian but also foreign historians, architects and engineers.
Exploring Armenian architecture’s chronology and research reports, we noticed that after independence of
the Republic of Armenia (since 1991) there are few scientific reports which include the stages of development of
architecture of newly independent Armenia, the current state of the architectural heritage and their observance. So
we decided to study that period trying to show the problems and essential events as well as to introduce that period
by the stages of development also including some examples of architectural heritage.

boom period of the Soviet Union. There have been both active and passive stages in the
period of Armenian design development.
Design in Armenia developed in three stages: first stage: 1960-1990, second stage:
1991-2010 and the third stage: from 2011 until now. In the first stage of design development,
the types of architectural and industrial design were active, in the second stage, the types of
graphic and fashion design, and in the third stage, almost all fields of design are developing
rapidly, they develop in parallel with international trends. In the last decade, the IT sphere
has been developing in Armenia and the other spheres related to the IT sphere are also
developing. In this regard, it is necessary to state that not only graphic design, but also Web
and UI/UX design was widely developed in Armenia. Along with the development of
construction, the branches of interior and exterior design became more active. And Armenian
fashion designers are already able to export Armenian-made clothes.
For the first time in the history of design in Armenia, it is an initiative to classify the
stages of design development. The impact of design development is interrelated with the
socio-economic and cultural situation of the country, as well as the need to pursue a stateplanned
policy to develop it and maintain contact with the social layers.

После обретения независимости в Армении отмечался всплеск строительства многоквартирных домов, что придало новое дыхание как градостроительству, так и экономике Армении, однако в то же время нарушило градостроительную и архитектурную среду Еревана. Это вызвало необходимость расширения города в пригородные районы, застраивания их новыми жилыми домами, которые стали
существенно отличаться от многоквартирных высокоэтажных зданий. С 2015 года в пригородах Еревана были построены ряд жилых кварталов, по своей концепции похожих на европейские и американские коттеджные поселки, или таунхаусы. Сейчас в Ереване ситуация такова, что назрела необходимость пересмотра градостроительной концепции города, учитывающей активное городское строительство.
The large-scale work on the construction of residential buildings, which began in 2010 in Yerevan, has gradually moved to the suburbs of Yerevan. After the independence of Armenia, the construction of apartment buildings gave a new breath to both urban planning and the economy of Armenia, but at the same time violated the urban planning and architectural environment of Yerevan. Therefore, it became necessary to develop new residential areas in the suburban districts of Yerevan, which began to differ significantly from multi-apartment high-rise buildings. Since 2015, a number of residential areas have been built in the suburbs of Yerevan, which in their concept were similar to European and American cottage villages or townhouses. In the near future, there will be a need to revise the urban planning concept of Yerevan, since the fact is that soon several compounds will be more actively built.

The city has been renamed several times - Kumayri, Alexandropol, Leninakan and Gyumri at present. After the 1988 earthquake, the city was almost destroyed, but in the 2000s the city’s reconstruction began, and is still going on. The city in general and most of the buildings in particular are architectural heritage, thus the main focus today remains their reconstruction.
Fortunately, almost all of the buildings have been renovated, all the architectural and design details of ancient Gyumri have been preserved: construction materials, colors, décors, windows, doors, floors, ornaments, composition. Hence, the present case study refers to Gyumri as a vivid example of how to preserve the ancient architectural heritage that not only enhances the city as a historical center but also makes it an excellent tourist brand.

Unlike in Tbilisi, a great number of buildings of architectural value in Yerevan – have not been preserved, and the newly built high-rise constructions do not blend the city's past and present in its architectural composition. The policy of preserving old buildings in Yerevan do not go as far as numerous such projects implemented in Tbilisi. Today, an exact and clear-cut policy referring to the appearance of new buildings, their architectural composition and design, their location and position – has already become a must.

The present dissertation is the first research work in the history of design in the Republic of Armenia, which discusses and investigates local and overseas auditorial halls with stage/scenic sections and offers a variety of innovative methods to modernize the mentioned buildings and their stage sections.
The dissertation consists of an Introduction and three chapters (“Soviet Armenian Architectural Premises with Scenic Sections and their Documentation”, The Transformation of Auditorial Halls: Scenic Technologies and Design in International Parallels”, “Auditorial Premises with Scenic Sections Inherited from Soviet Armenia: Their Reconstruction and Creative Design”). Each chapter (with the exception of the last one) is divided into sub-chapters. The investigation is summed up in the Conclusion, which is followed by a list of references to numerous professional sources. The Appendix is an integral and important part of the investigation. It presents the results of the documentary work carried out in the research: lists, listings, illustrative tables, schematic explanatory notes, as well as samples of documents.
The objective of the research is to investigate the above mentioned legacy of Soviet Armenian architecture, as well as a number of foreign auditorial halls with scenic sections in an attempt to find possible ways, methods and options of facilitating the renovation and modernization of the Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections.
Chapter I of the dissertation presents the list/documentation of Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections located in different cultural clubs, schools, universities, libraries and other institutions. A historical overview for each premise precedes the documentation.
The listing of the premises is a serious and time-consuming assignment. Nevertheless, it has been carried out through a scrupulous study and analysis of a wide variety of archival and library materials, on-site visits, mapping surveys, documents and other documented sources provided by different administrative bodies. Research based on computer graphics and two or three dimensional design observations have been carried out as well. As an ultimate result of the listing, the current state of the given premises, the present spheres of their functioning, major architectural peculiarities, designing features and other details have been singled out.
The next phase following the documentation of the premises under consideration included on-site surveys, data collection, measurement and estimation of scenic sections of auditorial halls, description of the current state of their design.
The on-site investigations and observations have been carried out not only in the Republic of Armenia but also in other countries. The premises studied in Armenia include Kanaz House of Culture, Echmiatsin House of Culture, Palace of Culture of Railway-men, Club in the Village of Gndevaz, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre) in Nor Nork District, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre) in the City of Echmiatsin, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre) in Arabkir District, National Academic Theatre after G. Sundukian, State Russian Dramatic Theatre after K. Stanislavski, State Musical Comedy Theatre after H. Paronyan, State Puppet Theatre after H. Toumanian, State Dramatic Theatre after V. Achemian, Yerevan School No. 134, American University of Armenia, Children’s National Library after Khnko-Aper, Union of Architects (House of Architects). The National Opera House in Lyon (France) and the Grand Theatre in Geneva (Switzerland) are also included in the list of on-site investigations. The auditorial halls, the scenic sections and the design of the following premises have been studied online: Dresden Opera House (Germany), Thomas L. Wells Public School in Toronto (Canada), Canada Water Library in London (UK).
Most thoroughly have been investigated and discussed the methodology and principles of modern design with the intention of finding possible and right ways of modernizing the technologies and design of the mentioned Armenian premises.
The investigation of prestigious foreign auditorial halls with scenic sections and ways and methods of application of modern technologies in them, have served a good basis for finding solutions referring to technological and design adaptation of Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections.
Being evaluated highly by the State Science Committee of the Ministry of Science and Education, RA and international experts, the present investigation has been granted a financial award within the frames of the “Post Graduate Research Support Program-2012” project.
The results of the investigation and possible solutions proposed to issues concerning renovation of Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections have been summed up in the Conclusion of the dissertation. Around ten modifications have been mentioned to enable the adaptation of the mentioned premises. The list of references includes over 80 research books by different authors in Armenian, Russian, English and French languages and a dozen of archival materials in addition to dictionaries, encyclopedias, professional journals, as well as web sites.
The present book is the first research in the history of design in
the Republic of Armenia, which discusses and investigates local and
overseas auditorial halls with stage/scenic sections, and offers a variety
of innovative methods to modernize the mentioned buildings and their
stage sections.
The research consists of an Introduction and three parts (“Soviet
Armenian Architectural Premises with Scenic Sections and their
Documentation”, “The Transformation of Auditorial Halls: Scenic
Technologies and Design in International Parallels”, “Auditorial
Premises with Scenic Sections Inherited from Soviet Armenia:
Reconstruction and Creative Design”). Each part (with the exception of
the last one) is divided into sub-parts. The investigation is summed up in
the Conclusion, which is followed by a list of references to numerous
professional sources. The Appendix is an integral and important part of
the investigation. It presents the results of the documentary work carried
out in the research: lists, listings, illustrative tables, schematic
explanatory notes, as well as samples of documents.
The objective of this study is to investigate the above mentioned
legacy of Soviet Armenian architecture, as well as a number of foreign
auditorial halls with scenic sections in an attempt to find possible ways,
methods and options of facilitating the renovation and modernization of
the Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections.
The research presents the list/documentation of Armenian
auditorial halls with scenic sections located in different cultural clubs,
schools, universities, libraries and other institutions. A historical
overview for each premise precedes the documentation.
The listing of the premises is a serious and time-consuming task.
Nevertheless, it has been carried out through a scrupulous study and analysis of a wide variety of archival and library materials, on-site visits,
mapping surveys, documents and other documented sources provided
by different administrative bodies. Research based on computer
graphics and 2D or 3D design observations has been carried out as well.
As an ultimate result of the listing, the current state of the given
premises, the spheres of their functioning today, major architectural
peculiarities, designing features and other details have been singled out.
The next phase following the documentation of the premises under
consideration includes on-site surveys, data collection, measurement and
estimation of scenic sections of auditorial halls, description of the
current state of their design.
The on-site investigations and observations have been carried out
not only in the Republic of Armenia but also in other countries. The
premises studied in Armenia include Kanaz House of Culture, Echmiatsin
House of Culture, Palace of Culture of Railwaymen, Club in the Village
of Gndevaz, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre) in Nor
Nork District, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre) in the
City of Echmiatsin, Young Armenians’ Centre (Hayordats Youth Centre)
in Arabkir District, National Academic Theatre after G. Sundukian, State
Russian Dramatic Theatre after K. Stanislavski, State Musical Comedy
Theatre after H. Paronyan, State Puppet Theatre after H. Toumanian,
State Dramatic Theatre after V. Achemian, Yerevan School No. 134,
American University of Armenia, Children’s National Library after
Khnko-Aper, Union of Architects (House of Architects). The National
Opera House in Lyon (France) and the Grand Theatre in Geneva
(Switzerland) are also included in the list of on-site investigations. The
auditorial halls, the scenic sections and the design of the following
premises have been studied online: Dresden Opera House (Germany),
Thomas L. Wells Public School in Toronto (Canada), Canada Water
Library in London (UK).
Most thoroughly have been investigated and discussed the
methodology and principles of modern design with the intention of
discerning possible and right ways of modernizing the technologies and
design of the mentioned Armenian premises. The investigation of prestigious foreign auditorial halls with scenic
sections and ways and methods of application of modern technologies in
them, have served a good basis for finding solutions referring to
technological and design adaptation of Armenian auditorial halls with
scenic sections.
Being evaluated highly by the State Science Committee of the
Ministry of Science and Education, RA and international experts, the
present investigation has been granted a financial award within the
frames of the “Post Graduate Research Support Program-2012” project.
The results of the investigation and possible solutions proposed
concerning renovation of Armenian auditorial halls with scenic sections
have been summed up in the Conclusion. Around ten modifications have
been mentioned to enable the adaptation of the mentioned premises.
The list of references includes over 80 research books by different
authors in Armenian, Russian, English and French languages and a
dozen of archival materials in addition to dictionaries, encyclopedias,
professional journals, as well as web sites.
ВОЗМОЖНОЕ ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ СОВРЕМЕННЫХ СЦЕНИЧЕСКИХ ТЕХНОЛОГИЙ В РЕКОНСТРУКЦИЯХ ЗРИТЕЛЬНО-СЦЕНИЧЕСКИХ ЗДАНИЙ В АРМЕНИИ
Книга является тем первым научным исследованием в истории
дизайна Республики Армения, которое рассматривает и исследует
ряд помещений зального типа в республике и предлагает
актуализировать и модернизировать помещения зального типа и их
сценические части.
Исследование состоит из предисловия, трех глав («Помещения с
составляющими зального типа архитектурного наследия Советской
Армении и их фактография», «Трансформация залов здания
зального типа, технологии сценических частей и их дизайн в
международных параллелях», «Помещения зального типа, унаследо-
ванные от Советского Союза, перестройка их сценических частей и
художественный дизайн»), которые (кроме третьей главы) имеют
подразделы. В работу включены заключение, а также ссылки к
представленному множеству источников. Важными и неотъемлемыми
частями диссертации являются приложения, которые включают
списки, иллюстративные таблицы, схематичные объяснения, а также
образцы документов.
Важной целью исследования является изучение сценических
частей и предложение возможных путей и вариантов модернизации
этих помещений.
В первой главе представлен подробный перечень помещений
зального типа в Армении (клубные, культурные, школьные,
вузовские, библиотечные и другие помещения), которому
предшествует исторический очерк о каждом сооружении зального
типа.
Составление перечня является серьезным процессом,
требующим много времени. Оно было осуществлено на основе
исследования множества архивных и библиотечных материалов, местных посещений, документов и других материалов,
предоставленных разными административными структурами.
Выполнены также компьютерные, графические, двухмерные,
трехмерные дизайнерские работы. В результате составления перечня
окончательно выяснились существующее состояние указанных
помещений, сферы их деятельности, основные архитектурные и
дизайнерские функции и другие подробности.
На этапе документации, который следует за этапом составления
перечня вышеуказанных помещений, были выполнены исследо-
вания, сбор документально-библиографической информации, изме-
рение зальных частей, описание нынешнего состояния зальных
частей и другие работы.
Местные исследования и наблюдения были выполнены в
помещениях Армении и других стран, имеющих зальную и
сценическую часть. Это Дома культуры Каназа (Ереван),
Эчмиадзина, Дом культуры железнодорожников, Клуб села Гндеваз,
Молодежные центры «Айордац» в Нор Норке, Эчмидзине, Арабкире,
Национальный академический театр имени Габриела Сундукяна,
Государственный Русский драматический театр имени Константина
Станиславского, Государственный театр комедии имени Акопа
Пароняна, Государственный кукольный театр имени Ованнеса

верситет Армении, Детская национальная библиотека имени Хнко-
Апера, Дом архитекторов, Национальный оперный театр Лиона,
Женевский Большой театр. Были выполнены также виртуальные
дизайнерские исследования в следующих помещениях зального
типа: Дрезденский оперный театр, школа Томаса Уэльса в Торонто,
Библиотека Канада Уотр в Англии.
Подробнейшим образом были исследованы и изучены методика
и основы дизайна с целью модернизации указанных помещений с
правильным и возможным применением сценических технологий.
Исследования известных международных помещений зального
типа и новейших сценических технологий также могут стать основой для адаптации возможных дизайнерских технологий к помещениям
зального типа и их сценических частей в Армении.
Тема удостоилась денежного вознаграждения в рамках
программы «Поддержка исследований аспирантов-2012»,
инициированной Министерством образования и науки Армении,
